Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can Tamiflu affect urine ? I started Tamiflu yesterday and just now...I urinated and I’m not sure how exactly how to call it - - my urine is either bloody looking or it’s orangey /brownish looking Also I am not urinating as usual Thank You for HELP ! !
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Tamiflu can cause high colored urine. It is because the excretory products of the tamiflu excreted through urine and imparts dark color to urine. It will return to normal once you stop the drug. Do a urine routine to make sure that it is not blood and liver function test to rule out jaundice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
